I was never a kid that knew who I would become when I grow up. My interests ranged from wanting to become an interior designer to having a strong desire of becoming a pilot. I was often surrounded by healthcare professionals but I never imagined myself striving to become one. Little did I know that I would end up at a stage in my life where I would be sure about pursuing a career in healthcare. Although I have decided on my career path, I have yet to discover a particular field within healthcare that grabs my interest. The RA Internship will help me learn more about medicine and help me find a right field of study through clinical research experience and monthly lectures offered to me as an intern. Though this opportunity I will be able to

In order for me to complete this career assessment paper, I initially took an Interest Inventory survey. Upon completing this process, it revealed that my personality profile score was (I, C, A). These three letters represented my strengths and interests in determining which career field would best suit me.

The objective of this survey was to find out what basic skills you have and what career needs the skills you have. In my opinion, I do not think this survey was completely accurate. One of the careers that matched my skills were an Air Crew Member which I would not like to pursue as a career because that is a job that you have to be extremely fearless for although I am not afraid of many things I am not fearless enough to be a part of the Military. Some of the jobs I found dreadful such as being a Travel Guide, Hotel/Motel Clerk and, Bus Driver. Although I didn’t like the majority of the jobs the jobs the survey suggested there were some jobs that I would not mind to do even though they would not be my first choice were a Credit Analyst, Real Estate Appraiser and, Insurance Underwriter. Even though there was a few jobs I thought seemed interesting, I still do not want to do them because I know that I want to do something fashion related such as Fashion Marketing or being a Fashion Trend

The first obstacle that I have chosen in the call to adventure. Odysseus is called to fight the battle of troy but has trouble dealing with the fact that he has to leave his wife and his newborn son. I relate to this because I will soon be graduating high school and moving to Pennsylvania to pursue the rest of my education (college – bachelors, masters). I know that I want to pursue a career in the medical field but in order to accomplish that goal, I have to leave. I know that this is where I need to go and I know that this is the best option for me, but I do not want to leave my home, my family, my ordinary world. I struggle dealing with the fact that I will be living half way across the country and living on my own without the safety net

I was about to fall asleep on my office’s desk drained from the procedure my colleagues and I did for the past 6 hours. My assistant walked into the office which reminded me that i am still working at the hospital. “I need my bed”, says the inner me overwork and irritated. I was thinking and then remembered the procedure. The intense and fast-paced environment still made my heart skip. The voices of my colleagues all talking at the same time, in addition to that, keeping up with the beeping of the ECG monitor made my palms sweat. The fear of losing your patient when you look into the eyes of the family and loved ones. Oh, the frustration! Then again the minute the beep goes back, comes the paralyzing feeling. It’s overwhelming, exciting and emotional all at the same time. I saved a person’s life. I saved a family from sorrow. Oh the fulfillment!

My career primarily falls within the emergency services or communications sectors as an operations manager. I have over fifteen years of experience, primarily in the military, and I believe it will help me advance because of how extended it is. Throughout my career, I have been a part of several projects of varying scopes. However, the majority of these projects occurred within the constraints of the military. The purview of military projects vary somewhat from civilian projects, particularly when it pertains to laws, employees and budget. Due to these differences, my experience maybe somewhat deficient when it relates to civilian sector professions. I will have to invest my efforts into gaining more knowledge to offset these variances. I plan

I took two surveys online and a paper and pencil survey. The three surveys were Basic

“Everybody has a Helene Tucker” By dick Gregory in Shame. When I was younger, all I ever wanted to be was a chef; however, as I got older, my career ideas changed drastically. I went through a few other stages before finally discovering that what I truly aspired to be was anything in the field of Medicine. My career choice as a Registered Nurse symbolizes all that I am: my abstraction, my motivation, and my passion.

During my fifty-year career, I have only had a few jobs. The last 30 of those years, I worked in the same office. Throughout this period, I reported directly to just a few different bosses, each having different management styles and personalities. I learned many new skills and was promoted to another section in this establishment, which I loved. The work was challenging, but the boss I was working for at the time proved more challenging than the work. I was depressed, anxious, paranoid and angry due to his abusive behavior. I was given assignments outside of my job description, which I always completed. I had to realize that the Lord had placed me there and He was the one I was working for; I did enjoy the work, but not the environment, I gained experience with international

Initially, when I began college, my major was biology. During my senior year, my career path began to evolve after taking a few psychology courses. To some extent, I was intrigued, but I also recall being unsure of the next step to take. I had a mental note of my revised career plan, but I did not have tangible plan to present to my advisor. Thus, my academic advisor recommended that I seek guidance from Career Services. At the time, I was not fully sold on the idea of making an appointment with Career Services and decided to use the internet instead of career advisor. I remember searching for “a career in psychology” and getting close to ten million search results. After several failed searches, I realized that is was too hard to determine what information was actually correct. Therefore, I concluded that it was probably best to follow my academic advisor’s advice to meet with Amanda Boland, the career consultant assigned to seniors with interest

In Canada, there has been a shortage of manpower in the skilled trades for many years. This shortage, has created a substantial increase in wages for those in the skilled trades, and thus a viable career path for those who wish to work primarily with their hands. Although many do not think of automotive mechanics when they think of skilled trades, they are included in the grouping. Automotive mechanics are an essential part of our functioning society, as there are over a billion cars driving on the earth at any given time. The goal of this paper, is to understand the thought processes, and issues facing people in the skilled trades, which university students and professors may not be aware of.

How many of y’all have ever been in a relationship and things start to get a little shaky which puts your relationship in a bad place. You kind of get scared to really open up on how you feel so now you’re to the point where ready to just give it up thinking everything would be okay and that the grass would be greener on the other side? Well, I have had a situation like that and every time I look back and reflect on it, there’s this one song that always come to mind. It goes a little something like this… “You ain't the girl that you used to be you say you're done, you're moving on this ain't the world that it used to be Looks like you've won” then it goes on to say... “That grass ain't greener on the other side”.

My class has recently been introduced to a very useful and informative website called CFNC.org or College Foundation Of North Carolina. This website has helped us find out what careers are best suited for us in the future and what tasks and responsibilities those careers may include. One of the many goals I have for this paper is to find out whether the career I have chosen really fits me or not. Another goal I have for this paper, is to find out more about CFNC and how it can help me plan for the future and learn about all different types of careers. Above all, I really hope this paper will help me to answer the question “What do you want to be when you grow up?”.

This year for my senior year this year I am hoping to achieve certain goals such as the school year being a breeze and not very stressful. I wanted to be able to enjoy my last year of high school instead of stressing out about certain classes. I wanted to strongly focus on the classes that I needed in order to graduate which is Math and English then take easy courses for the remaining periods, so I am not feeling overwhelmed or being stressed out. I also hope to manage excellent grades in all my classes especially the dance courses I am taking at YSU. Even though I am taking easy courses at highschool and a few college dance courses at YSU, I still want to manage excellent grades without stress.
